The race in the new console wars has begun with proponents for each side. Will the new Xbox 720 (code named Durango), or the the Playstation 4 (code named Orbis)come out on top?

We have already seen a glimpse of that future with the current Xbox console and its SmartGlass app.
nVidia today decided to come out an officially announce the other chipset we’ve known up to now as Project Grey.

Well Grey is now officially known as Tegra 4i and it is nVidia’s first integrated LTE Tegra processor.
